d) no one in the sample ever heard of Smitty's Bar and Grill

Answer 1

i think it is b) beacuase thet had only asked 2 people how can they get results by asking two people they have to ask more than 2 people to see.

Answer 2

I have a strong feeling that you have a typo, and that you meant to say,
"Assuming we randomly select 12 people. "

Please confirm.

Answer 3

if it is 12 people she meant then the answer would be c)

Answer 4

These are not multiple choice answers, they are individual questions

Answer 5

a) prob that exactly 5 out of 12 will recognize
= C(12,5)(.61)^5(.39)^7
= appr 0.0918

b)
prob = C(12,0)(.61)^0 (.39)^12 + C(12,1)(.61)^1 (.39)^11 + ... + C(12,5)(.61)^5 (.39)^7

c) prob = 1 - (answer to b)

d) prob = C(12,0)(.61)^0 (.39)^12
= .00001238
